FUNERAL FOR A FRIEND - DAMNED IF YOU DO, DEAD IF YOU DON'T
DROP Db TUNING - (Db-Ab-Db-Gb-Bb-Eb)
***************************************************************************
* *
* >>>>Important!!!<<<< *
* *
* Even though funeral for a friend ALWAYS play in Drop Db tuning, on *
* this track it is an awful lot easier to play it in just usual half- *
* step down tuning (so only lowering the low E string by one step *
* instead of 3), so even though i've tabbed it in their usual tuning, *
* feel free to play it in half-step down tuning by just playing each note *
* on the low E string 2 frets higher after re-tuning. *
* *
